Lord of the Click: Interstellar Wars

If you enjoy clicker games that offer strategic depth and a sci-fi setting, Interstellar Wars is a must-play. Prepare to command your cosmic forces, unleash your clicking prowess, and lead your army to victory in this thrilling intergalactic adventure!

Lord of the Click: Interstellar Wars is a casual strategy title that leans heavily into simplicity, accessibility, and lighthearted sci-fi spectacle. Developed and published by HugePixel, the game transports the familiar clicker-strategy formula into outer space, placing players in command of a growing interstellar force locked in conflict with waves of alien and mutant enemies.

The ui is difficult to handle if you are using mouse and keyboard. Units and powers are highlighted when you mouse over them, not when you click on them, so you can easily bump and highlight the wrong power without realizing it until it's too late. There are no keybinds assigned to units, as far as I could tell, so there wasn't a way around that without using a controller. The controller rumbles with every single character deployment, so I had unplugged it a while ago. Further, you dont even have to click the boxes to use units, once it is highlighted you can just click the field to use it. This is another point of frustration, as accidental clicks just waste resources. The tutorial assumes you pick a power that costs fuel to …

3 crashes on the second level. It was a fun and simple game but I just can't proceed with it crashing.

Sometimes the war is too crowded on the planet. And then she decides to embroider. The war is already in space.
